A Brave New World Quote Analysis

Society has always been divided into social classes. Each class has a valuable aspect that contributes and makes our society run smooth. As much as we try to make our society reflect a Utopian world, there will always be a struggle within the caste system as Karl Marx mentions in his philosophy Marxism. In the book Brave New World written by Aldous Huxley in 1946, Huxley portrays a Utopian world but one that show a lot of problems even in a so called “perfect world”. Each social class will eventually have to struggle no what, in a Utopian world or not. Huxley explains that there is no stability if individuals lack stability.

Hall states, “Class struggle is necessary and inevitable”(Hall 77). I agree with Hall because in any given conditions in society, people will always have questions because that is human nature, people will eventually challenge the status quo.

People are already being mind control, now they are being cloned, is this where our society today is going? Humanity is being stripped from us quicker than we think. In the website, < http://huxley.net/ >, expresses, “Individuality is suppressed. Intellectual excitement and discovery have been abolished.”(huxley.net). Since these clones are being conditioned to hate things that are able to help lower classes like the epsilons. It seems that a perfect world cannot be reach without a social class being oppressed. No individual can ever be creative or unique in their own way because society has accepted the idea that they are powerless, Huxley writes, “In so far as it recognized him as important, the order of things was good”(Huxley 157). In the lower classes’ perspective, they cannot rebel or challenge the status quo but instead they are afraid. Lower classes have more power than they believe. If they would unite and stand up for
